Speaker 1 (00:00):
When you look at how many companies around this nation
are using call centers in places like India and Bangladesh,
didn't kind of feel like maybe there should be a
tariff for that. They should charge these people more. Knock
it off. You're saving money by hiring a plethora of
people from a third world country to do jobs we
(00:20):
used to have Americans do. I can remember on this
radio show speculating what would it be like if someone
in India called tech support they got somebody in Texas.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Yeah, that would be fun. It would blow their mind. Awdy,
Monnyme is Jamal. My my name's Ikbar. Thanks for connecting here. Hi,
this is Patel, thanks for calling. Uh, what does your name?
It's definitely Patel.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Yeah, uh, I love couscous and uh yeah, I'm just
here to help you get connected with your uh your
Exfinity wireless connection today. Go ahead. And what's your name there?
Speaker 2 (00:57):
Calling India and getting my It's just as weird, right yeah,
I mean, if you think that's weird, what's your name
is Sue?
Speaker 1 (01:05):
I don't think your name is Sue. I think it's Sue. Man.
Doesn't matter anyway. The Treasury Secretary thinks that the Trump
administration will win the Supreme Court ruling on tariffs. Oh,
by the way, there's going to be a Supreme Court
ruling on tariffs. Oh is there? Here's Fox News.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Follow me last week's appeals court decision ruling most of
the administration tariff's illegal. Bestine argues the massive US trade
deficit is an emergency and says the Supreme Court will
see it that way too.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
We think we're gonna win at the Supreme Court. We
are close to a tipping point where we could have
financial instability due to these large and persistent trade deficits.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Okay, so here's what this all boils down to, right,
three or four ish weeks a month. Amy Cony Barrett
really seems to have her head on her shoulders.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Almost all month long. But what happens for the there's
some like five to six days month.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Amy Cony Barrett just doesn't seem rational, and we don't
know what it is. We used to think I know
what it is. Boys, let me uh, I'm going to
explain it to you. Oh look, who's back everybody.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
It's happening right now. As a matter of fact, this
is that time of the month. You know, that time
of the month. What do you mean? Bills? Bills, bills.
It's just as upset as I do when they start
rolling in. That must be what it is that the bills. Sure,
I mean, it makes perfect sense. What else would bother
her monthly?
Speaker 1 (02:29):
I don't get it. She hates the buffalo bills. That
could be obviously, it could be.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Well, Uh, welcome back, boys, It's about time y'all showed
up for some work.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
I'm sorry you weren't off for the past week like
the rest of us were.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
I was on call, which is pretty much the same
thing as being at work.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
Uh, and I did get a few calls about some things.
Apparently people come in here when I'm not around and
they start pushing buttons and turning knobs just to see
what it does.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
Yeah, we're having that problem in our studio this morning.
When we go to push the button to talk to
our producer down the hall, it's a different radio station.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Oh fun. Will you get to meet new and exciting
friends that way?
Speaker 1 (03:08):
You forget sometimes how many other people work in this building,
because I never talked to any of them.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
Yeah, I do try to forget. Let me put that differently.
They don't talk to me well, there's a reason for that, oh,
believe me.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
I know. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
And then there's some people that work down the hall.
I don't know what they do here, but I just
see them in a bathroom sometimes, and man, if you
even make eye contact or nod your head acknowledge them
in some way, it's hard to walk away from them.
They're like a human vacuum trying to suck you into
their world and talk to you and stuff. I don't
(03:40):
want to get no one to talking to me.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
It is interesting how some of the best broadcasters, great
mass communicators, are so awkward when you're talking to them
one on one outside of the bathroom. Uh huh. Yeah.
On the radio they sound great, you know, fantastic at
demonstrating points verbally, and then when you see them in
line at the cafetuo are here in our office building,
it's a little bit like running into a bridge troll,
(04:04):
a little bit.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Yeah, just stay away from him. That's the situation. I
came in here. I don't know what YO was talking
about when I walked in. I've already forgotten because I
had something else on my mind that I wanted to shit.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
I don't like to tell you about this a.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
It's sad when people die, especially if they're celebrities and
you knew them or you liked them. But worse than that,
I hate to tell Kenny that this guy died because
he's liable to start playing a bunch of dang Indian
music every time we come back from commercial.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
You know how you do feather or don feather? I'm
afraid I don't know any feather music. The Tatanka wrestling theme.
That's about all I got.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
Well, good, Now you won't to fall into the trap
of playing music for recently to see celebrities like Kicking Bird.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
What's Kicking Bird? Where's Kicking Bird from? He? Well, he's
from Dances with Wolves? Maybe you saw it? What's that?
Speaker 2 (05:04):
It's an old movie from back in the nineteen hundreds.
Oh okay, Graham Green is the Indian Fellow's name played
an Indian and almost every show he was in and.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
Was the Italian in real life a lot of it.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Turns out he was a Canadian Indian. Oh, he's an
actual Native American. He played the date of Canadian Kicking Bird.
Who for you youngsters out there, don't know it?
Speaker 1 (05:28):
You damn it? You found some, didn't you? Well? I
just I do like this, so it's actually great. Yeah.
Just you know this guy Paul Revere, he had no
relation to the founding father Paul Revere. It's just right.
It's just a question that stole the name and his band,
the Raiders. They weren't even football players, they never rated nothing. No,
(05:49):
they just made that up. They just gave They just
call himself Paul. It'd be like if I decided to
call myself Ben Franklin and the Chicago Bears. Yeah, that
wouldn't be right. No, it wouldn't make any sense. It's
very leading. What this native American actor, Native Canadian actor,
Graham Green, the actor Indian actor.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
I mean, he was in a lot of stuff besides
dancers with wolves, but that's where most people. First time
he tasted sugar, you know, when Kevin Costner gave him
a little taste.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Once he got him a little.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Taste, he got him hooked, you know how the little
new Yeah, oh believe me, I've heard. Yeah, man moves in,
starts getting all the minorities hooked on stuff, and then
they need him.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
Yeah, like more like blankets and fire.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
Yeah, it's medicine for the diseases that.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
We gave them Cherokee people. Was that his tribe or
was it just I don't know, I don't know. Probably not.
GE's kind of offensive to Native Americans when they're not
a Cherokee. And some morning radio showed Cherch plays That's
like that wasn't even our tribe, not really attribute at all.
It's more insulting than anything. The Cherokees actually murdered our
(06:56):
people hundreds of years ago.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
And then, well, like it or not, we outnumber him
by a pretty good amount.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
He was also in Longmire.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
For those of you who watched Longmeyer, he was a
bad guy, ransecurity for the casino. Him and Walt they
did not like each other, I'll tell you that for sure.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Wow, so he was in that's the storyline of the show.
But in real wife, i'd imagine they probably did like
each other.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Oh I'm sure, yeah, sure, who wouldn't like Walt Longmire.
I mean he's a good old boy. Seems like a
good guy, right, yeah, definitely good guy. Well rest in
peace then too. What was his name?
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Kicking bird? Kicking Bird.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
But I like to balance that sad news with some
pretty good news. Just found out this morning that.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Jered Nadler is gonna retire. How about that.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Now it's not gonna be like today, you know, you
like I'm doing, But he's not running for re election
next year, so it's gonna be a ways off yet.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
For our younger listeners, you know, you may have a
vague idea of who Chair Nadler is. Maybe you don't.
He is a longtime Manhattan Democrat, currently a congressman for
the twelfth Congressional District of New York State, but his
disputes with Donald Trump go back a long way. Once
upon a time he was a member of local government
in the City of New York and had a lot
(08:18):
of disputes with Donald Trump back then the real estate developer,
so that two of them have been hating each other
for like forty years at this point. Just a long
time Jerry Nadler, a member of the Lollipop Guild, is
to my friends, most notable for once having taken a
dump in his own pants on live TV. He did that.
It's not hard to find that video of him waddling
(08:39):
off stage during a live press conference where it's clear's
day what just happened, and although it seemed confusing at
the time, once it occurs to you that he actually,
you know, defecated in his own drawers on live TV.
Now when you see that clip, it's crystal clear what's
going on. Yell your choice. You can go look at Danny.
You can go look for the Printzkers of brothers pictures Chad,
(09:03):
Jennifer Pritzker, JB. That's his brother, Jennifer her cousin or whatever. Yeah. Yeah,
by the way, just to make a point here, Cherry
Nadler and JB. Pritzker's cousin, Jennifer Pritzker. The training kind
of look alike. Oh yeah, him in a wig. That's
all it is. Has any has no one ever introduced
these people to fruit.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
And then since we're in Chicago, basically because of Illinois
and the governor, uh, the Chicago mayor continues to kind
of like the mayor of Los Angeles and the mayor
of a lot of these Democrat run cities. They continue
to do good work. Yes, because, as you heard, Washington,
d c. Crime rate has dropped drastically in the last
(09:44):
few weeks because Trump brought in what they call you
the Fidge National Guard military.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
However you want to look at it, well, it worked,
it actually worked.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
The mayor of Chicago during over the same weekend that
more than fifty people were shot, just in the weekend
that mayor of that city it issued an executive order
against any FEDS in her by god Town, No.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Sir, yeah, thank god, We're going to say no to
cracking down on crime.
Speaker 4 (10:14):
Now.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
The thing that's so remarkable about them telling you that,
you know, we didn't need any help in Washington, d C.
They said crime was already down. Murder in Washington, d
C was six times higher than New York City before
Trump sent the National Guard there. Yep. So when they
say that murder's down or crime's down, the question to
always asks is compared to what gown from where compared
(10:35):
to like when it was already ridiculously bad and it
got slightly better. I mean maybe better is not even
the right word. Just not as bad, still bad? Right,
six times worse than New York City because I don't
feel like New York City's the safest place in America.
If murder's six times worse in Washington, d C, then
it is in New York City, then thank god we
sent the National Guard there. Amen, We're going to go
(10:57):
to Chicago a little later this morning and we'll know.
Oh I don't want to go. Well, you're going whether
you like it or not.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
But I'm must stay here to go right like we're
going there in spirit. That's the only way to travel. Yeah,
that's it.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Tuesday. Yeah, it's Tuesday, Wolton and Johnson Radio Network. The
tune right there?
Speaker 4 (11:13):
Can you?
Speaker 1 (11:14):
I'm liking that's a finger snapper. You know. You got
to give the people what they want. You gotta do it.
That's what we're known for on this radio show.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
Yeah, and also not on the show. Yeah, he was
giving the people what they want.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
We tried to. Yeah, guy, Hi, guys, this a little
early for that. She works. Give me a heart attack.
I didn't know what happened to Share. I thought for
sure you were gonna play Share.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Why did she die or something? Because Graham Green died.
You did a whole thing about the Indian music and
Kicking Bird and all, and you already did the Turkey Nation,
so I figured Share was okay. Never mind, you're you're
looking at me like I'm insane.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
Who's Graham Green? The hills he talking about? I don't
know either, what are you talking?
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Just five minutes ago you were talking about the actor.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
I thought his name was kicks kicking bird. Kicking bird, Yeah, yeah,
kicking bird.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
I want to talk to Kevin Custner to tunka tunka
look at.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
I hate to be the guy to bring this up,
but have you noticed he kind of looks Asian? You
shouldn't be bringing that up right now. I mean, he does,
you know he's that common with the you know then
whatever tribe he's from. The well, it's too late for
share now because the moment's gone.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
I wanted to get in here early enough to hear
stories about Burning Man. I'm curious as too. What is
there to do there besides walk around all day and
stare at each other like, oh, you're a freak.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
No, you're the freak for looking at us. It was
a fascinating week. And when I say, are there concerts?
Is it like Woodstock or something? What? What goes on?
Sort of? I went to Burning Man. It's true you did,
and I was far and away the most conservative person
there by a lot, the number two most.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
When Fox News did a whole story a Gutville, it's
been about fifteen minutes making fun of all the morons
at Burning Man, I thought, you know this doesn't sound
like Kenny's normal vacation. It was very, very very unusual.
Why did you get it in your head to go
in the first place? What did that little seed get planted?
Speaker 1 (13:21):
A friend of mine invited me, He said, you know,
you'd have fun. There's all it took. Just Hey, you
want to go to Burning Man. You didn't say, well,
I don't know. It's maybe not my place to be.
You've never gone somewhere, you never went before, so you
could check it out. Yeah, but not for a week.
I didn't go for a week. I went for three
days and that was enough. Okay. Yeah. Have you ever
(13:45):
been to a music festival? You probably have, right, well, yeah,
sure lately. A few things you see at a normal
festival that you do not see at Burning Man. Thing
Number one, commerce, there's nothing for sale there. They're not
selling things, they're not buying things. There's no merch stand.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
I told a friend that you were at bernie Man.
She told me that everybody there had to barter and
trade for something to earn their place, or to reason
to be there.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Was that happening. There's no bar even that isn't really
That's what I thought too. There's no bartering going on
Everything's Free.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
I was wondering, what did you take to barter with
if that was supposed to happen. I certainly hope it
wasn't just you.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
No, No, I brought something uh huh, right wing talking points,
you go. I went there to red pill people. This
maybe the last year of Burning Man then huh. I
was not loved, I'll put it that way. But I
had a good time. I mean, I still had fun. No,
everything's free. You walk around and there's there are no
acts booked. They don't book any acts. Billionaires who are
not involved in the organizing of the festival will hire DJs,
(14:53):
famous ones to come and perform there. And I don't
know what the point of that is, but I saw
a lot of it happening. Very bert stages a lot
of burning stuff. Well that makes effigy's that sort of thing.
It's a little paganistic. As a Christian, I was the
only person walking around with a cross around my neck,
and more than once someone walked up to me and
(15:14):
put their hand over it to cover it while they
spoke to me. Oh no, I know, And I remember thinking,
if the sign of a cross offends you, But you're
for equality. I have to ask, historically, where do you
think that idea came from? Good question, This whole idea
that we're all here, we're all equal, we should all
be nice to each other, which embodies the philosophy of
Burning Man started with Judeo Christian beliefs. They probably don't
(15:39):
want to hear that, No, they don't. In the same weekend,
burning Man experienced a birth and a murder. Still, I
got to think the most shocking thing to witness at
Burning Man was soap. I was in a what's there
any Yeah, I was in. I'm surprised you've you did
clean up.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
One of the things I was wondering is if you
would come back from Burning Man still looking like you
were there?
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Yeah, I know. I was in a camp with one friend.
It was a large camper, and still I think we
got on each other's nerves. An old friend of mine,
he's a doctor.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
That I grew, the one that suggested you go, yeah, okay,
well then there you go.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
I got. I rented a camper. I rented e bikes
with giant wheels so I could travel around what's called
the Plaia. And as you're riding around out there. You
see a lot of nudity, and to quote John Walton, yeah,
it's not the people you want to look at nation.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
It almost never is unless they don't know you're watching.
You know, it's dark outside and they left the lights on.
Kind of like the Ticketmaster business model. Is a healthy
combination of the rich and the ignorant. Out there at
Burning Man.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
A lot of wealthy people.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
We did get a top of emails about your wild vacation.
Jeff says, Kenny, are you the one responsible for destroying
the orgy tint?
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Okay? So the orgy tent is an interesting thing because
thanks to one of our radio listeners who I ran
into at the event, a really cool guy I named Derek,
I had Internet the whole time I was there. However,
most people don't. There's over one hundred thousand people there
and this event is located in the most desolate part
of the desert, two hours north of Reno. You know
(17:14):
what's weird.
Speaker 2 (17:14):
It sounds like punishment, especially for a younger generation. How
about you go somewhere so remote you don't have internet
for a whole week.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
That sounds cruel and inhumane these days. Yeah, but billyead
getting off the grid. Doesn't that sound good, dude? And
you know not, He's not the generation I'm talking about.
Not shockingly, the hippies and the ravers at burning Man
tend to agree with that notion. While I was there,
I had access to the Internet, so I was aware
of the fact that they said a rainstorm shut down
the orgy dome is what it was called, the orgy dome,
(17:46):
And on social media, that news story was everywhere. It's
widely discussed on Twitter x.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Between the orgy being destroyed and the sand storm, it's
pretty much all I saw because Fox News was covered
and making fun of you.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
Well, hang on a minute. At the event, nobody actually
knew what the orgy tent was. It wasn't discussed. No
one knew it was going on. It wasn't Maybe you
have to have.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
Gone a few years, you know, your first time, nobody
tells you about the orgy tent. Now you know, so
when you go back, you're going to go back next year,
you'll know all about the orgy tent.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
I don't think I'll be going back next year. But
it's interesting to be involved in something and then see
the news coverage of it and to be able to
actually see firsthand how different the two things are. Yeah,
the news coverage made it sound like the weather at
burning Man was just terrible and it ruined the whole party, Right,
But if you were actually at burning Man, the weather
wasn't really much of an issue at all. The problem.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
I'll tell you where the weather has been awful England.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
I don't know if you saw this.
Speaker 2 (18:46):
Before you went away for your your did you have
any visions or did a healer touch you or anything
really cool like that happen.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
I got touched one time by somebody at the TA
checkpoint in Sacramento. May consider themselves healers. Yeah. No, England.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
And I'm just reading this from the news story that
they printed out.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
I guess it's like two weeks ago.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
England is currently in a drought, the most severe climate
crisis that England has suffered since last year. When England
is experiencing horrible flooding. Right, they want to make this
a scary news story. The weather reporters always want you,
(19:34):
you know, on the edge of your seat. My god,
what's gonna happen next? Oh, it's a terrible drought. Last
year at this time it was a terrible flood So
this is what got my attention. The British government has
told its subjects, you know, the citizen UK, you know
the Muslims, yes, to delete old emails to save water.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
Okay, I'm gonna just tom.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
I I just open the floor for anybody to explain
to me how that helps.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
It has to do with cooling towers or something like that.
The you know that they are these giant database network,
says the Amazon computer, uh, storing all your emails in them,
or the Google database.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
Three hundred emails and I delete two hundred and fifty
emails out of my email account in my computer. The
cooling tower doesn't have to cool anymore. I got a
thing mind to stay cool.
Speaker 1 (20:30):
I gotta think of having unread emails in your Gmail account,
old emails that you've read and just didn't delete. If
that's what's preventing your island from capsizing, you're doing, You're
toast bird? Yeah, did you even really stand a chance? Right?
They show is going to.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
Be the greatest show.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
I've got a great two for Tuesday. It must be
two for Tuesday. Yeah, that two for Tooday special. Wolton M.
Johnson
When you look at how many companies around this nation
are using call centers in places like India and Bangladesh,
didn't kind of feel like maybe there should be a
tariff for that. They should charge these people more. Knock
it off. You're saving money by hiring a plethora of
people from a third world country to do jobs we
(00:20):
used to have Americans do. I can remember on this
radio show speculating what would it be like if someone
in India called tech support they got somebody in Texas.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Yeah, that would be fun. It would blow their mind. Awdy,
Monnyme is Jamal. My my name's Ikbar. Thanks for connecting here. Hi,
this is Patel, thanks for calling. Uh, what does your name?
It's definitely Patel.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Yeah, uh, I love couscous and uh yeah, I'm just
here to help you get connected with your uh your
Exfinity wireless connection today. Go ahead. And what's your name there?
Speaker 2 (00:57):
Calling India and getting my It's just as weird, right yeah,
I mean, if you think that's weird, what's your name
is Sue?
Speaker 1 (01:05):
I don't think your name is Sue. I think it's Sue. Man.
Doesn't matter anyway. The Treasury Secretary thinks that the Trump
administration will win the Supreme Court ruling on tariffs. Oh,
by the way, there's going to be a Supreme Court
ruling on tariffs. Oh is there? Here's Fox News.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Follow me last week's appeals court decision ruling most of
the administration tariff's illegal. Bestine argues the massive US trade
deficit is an emergency and says the Supreme Court will
see it that way too.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
We think we're gonna win at the Supreme Court. We
are close to a tipping point where we could have
financial instability due to these large and persistent trade deficits.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Okay, so here's what this all boils down to, right,
three or four ish weeks a month. Amy Cony Barrett
really seems to have her head on her shoulders.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Almost all month long. But what happens for the there's
some like five to six days month.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Amy Cony Barrett just doesn't seem rational, and we don't
know what it is. We used to think I know
what it is. Boys, let me uh, I'm going to
explain it to you. Oh look, who's back everybody.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
It's happening right now. As a matter of fact, this
is that time of the month. You know, that time
of the month. What do you mean? Bills? Bills, bills.
It's just as upset as I do when they start
rolling in. That must be what it is that the bills. Sure,
I mean, it makes perfect sense. What else would bother
her monthly?
Speaker 1 (02:29):
I don't get it. She hates the buffalo bills. That
could be obviously, it could be.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Well, Uh, welcome back, boys, It's about time y'all showed
up for some work.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
I'm sorry you weren't off for the past week like
the rest of us were.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
I was on call, which is pretty much the same
thing as being at work.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
Uh, and I did get a few calls about some things.
Apparently people come in here when I'm not around and
they start pushing buttons and turning knobs just to see
what it does.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
Yeah, we're having that problem in our studio this morning.
When we go to push the button to talk to
our producer down the hall, it's a different radio station.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Oh fun. Will you get to meet new and exciting
friends that way?
Speaker 1 (03:08):
You forget sometimes how many other people work in this building,
because I never talked to any of them.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
Yeah, I do try to forget. Let me put that differently.
They don't talk to me well, there's a reason for that, oh,
believe me.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
I know. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
And then there's some people that work down the hall.
I don't know what they do here, but I just
see them in a bathroom sometimes, and man, if you
even make eye contact or nod your head acknowledge them
in some way, it's hard to walk away from them.
They're like a human vacuum trying to suck you into
their world and talk to you and stuff. I don't
(03:40):
want to get no one to talking to me.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
It is interesting how some of the best broadcasters, great
mass communicators, are so awkward when you're talking to them
one on one outside of the bathroom. Uh huh. Yeah.
On the radio they sound great, you know, fantastic at
demonstrating points verbally, and then when you see them in
line at the cafetuo are here in our office building,
it's a little bit like running into a bridge troll,
(04:04):
a little bit.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Yeah, just stay away from him. That's the situation. I
came in here. I don't know what YO was talking
about when I walked in. I've already forgotten because I
had something else on my mind that I wanted to shit.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
I don't like to tell you about this a.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
It's sad when people die, especially if they're celebrities and
you knew them or you liked them. But worse than that,
I hate to tell Kenny that this guy died because
he's liable to start playing a bunch of dang Indian
music every time we come back from commercial.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
You know how you do feather or don feather? I'm
afraid I don't know any feather music. The Tatanka wrestling theme.
That's about all I got.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
Well, good, Now you won't to fall into the trap
of playing music for recently to see celebrities like Kicking Bird.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
What's Kicking Bird? Where's Kicking Bird from? He? Well, he's
from Dances with Wolves? Maybe you saw it? What's that?
Speaker 2 (05:04):
It's an old movie from back in the nineteen hundreds.
Oh okay, Graham Green is the Indian Fellow's name played
an Indian and almost every show he was in and.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
Was the Italian in real life a lot of it.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Turns out he was a Canadian Indian. Oh, he's an
actual Native American. He played the date of Canadian Kicking Bird.
Who for you youngsters out there, don't know it?
Speaker 1 (05:28):
You damn it? You found some, didn't you? Well? I
just I do like this, so it's actually great. Yeah.
Just you know this guy Paul Revere, he had no
relation to the founding father Paul Revere. It's just right.
It's just a question that stole the name and his band,
the Raiders. They weren't even football players, they never rated nothing. No,
(05:49):
they just made that up. They just gave They just
call himself Paul. It'd be like if I decided to
call myself Ben Franklin and the Chicago Bears. Yeah, that
wouldn't be right. No, it wouldn't make any sense. It's
very leading. What this native American actor, Native Canadian actor,
Graham Green, the actor Indian actor.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
I mean, he was in a lot of stuff besides
dancers with wolves, but that's where most people. First time
he tasted sugar, you know, when Kevin Costner gave him
a little taste.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Once he got him a little.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Taste, he got him hooked, you know how the little
new Yeah, oh believe me, I've heard. Yeah, man moves in,
starts getting all the minorities hooked on stuff, and then
they need him.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
Yeah, like more like blankets and fire.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
Yeah, it's medicine for the diseases that.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
We gave them Cherokee people. Was that his tribe or
was it just I don't know, I don't know. Probably not.
GE's kind of offensive to Native Americans when they're not
a Cherokee. And some morning radio showed Cherch plays That's
like that wasn't even our tribe, not really attribute at all.
It's more insulting than anything. The Cherokees actually murdered our
(06:56):
people hundreds of years ago.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
And then, well, like it or not, we outnumber him
by a pretty good amount.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
He was also in Longmire.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
For those of you who watched Longmeyer, he was a
bad guy, ransecurity for the casino. Him and Walt they
did not like each other, I'll tell you that for sure.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Wow, so he was in that's the storyline of the show.
But in real wife, i'd imagine they probably did like
each other.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Oh I'm sure, yeah, sure, who wouldn't like Walt Longmire.
I mean he's a good old boy. Seems like a
good guy, right, yeah, definitely good guy. Well rest in
peace then too. What was his name?
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Kicking bird? Kicking Bird.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
But I like to balance that sad news with some
pretty good news. Just found out this morning that.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Jered Nadler is gonna retire. How about that.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Now it's not gonna be like today, you know, you
like I'm doing, But he's not running for re election
next year, so it's gonna be a ways off yet.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
For our younger listeners, you know, you may have a
vague idea of who Chair Nadler is. Maybe you don't.
He is a longtime Manhattan Democrat, currently a congressman for
the twelfth Congressional District of New York State, but his
disputes with Donald Trump go back a long way. Once
upon a time he was a member of local government
in the City of New York and had a lot
(08:18):
of disputes with Donald Trump back then the real estate developer,
so that two of them have been hating each other
for like forty years at this point. Just a long
time Jerry Nadler, a member of the Lollipop Guild, is
to my friends, most notable for once having taken a
dump in his own pants on live TV. He did that.
It's not hard to find that video of him waddling
(08:39):
off stage during a live press conference where it's clear's
day what just happened, and although it seemed confusing at
the time, once it occurs to you that he actually,
you know, defecated in his own drawers on live TV.
Now when you see that clip, it's crystal clear what's
going on. Yell your choice. You can go look at Danny.
You can go look for the Printzkers of brothers pictures Chad,
(09:03):
Jennifer Pritzker, JB. That's his brother, Jennifer her cousin or whatever. Yeah. Yeah,
by the way, just to make a point here, Cherry
Nadler and JB. Pritzker's cousin, Jennifer Pritzker. The training kind
of look alike. Oh yeah, him in a wig. That's
all it is. Has any has no one ever introduced
these people to fruit.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
And then since we're in Chicago, basically because of Illinois
and the governor, uh, the Chicago mayor continues to kind
of like the mayor of Los Angeles and the mayor
of a lot of these Democrat run cities. They continue
to do good work. Yes, because, as you heard, Washington,
d c. Crime rate has dropped drastically in the last
(09:44):
few weeks because Trump brought in what they call you
the Fidge National Guard military.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
However you want to look at it, well, it worked,
it actually worked.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
The mayor of Chicago during over the same weekend that
more than fifty people were shot, just in the weekend
that mayor of that city it issued an executive order
against any FEDS in her by god Town, No.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Sir, yeah, thank god, We're going to say no to
cracking down on crime.
Speaker 4 (10:14):
Now.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
The thing that's so remarkable about them telling you that,
you know, we didn't need any help in Washington, d C.
They said crime was already down. Murder in Washington, d
C was six times higher than New York City before
Trump sent the National Guard there. Yep. So when they
say that murder's down or crime's down, the question to
always asks is compared to what gown from where compared
(10:35):
to like when it was already ridiculously bad and it
got slightly better. I mean maybe better is not even
the right word. Just not as bad, still bad? Right,
six times worse than New York City because I don't
feel like New York City's the safest place in America.
If murder's six times worse in Washington, d C, then
it is in New York City, then thank god we
sent the National Guard there. Amen, We're going to go
(10:57):
to Chicago a little later this morning and we'll know.
Oh I don't want to go. Well, you're going whether
you like it or not.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
But I'm must stay here to go right like we're
going there in spirit. That's the only way to travel. Yeah,
that's it.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Tuesday. Yeah, it's Tuesday, Wolton and Johnson Radio Network. The
tune right there?
Speaker 4 (11:13):
Can you?
Speaker 1 (11:14):
I'm liking that's a finger snapper. You know. You got
to give the people what they want. You gotta do it.
That's what we're known for on this radio show.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
Yeah, and also not on the show. Yeah, he was
giving the people what they want.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
We tried to. Yeah, guy, Hi, guys, this a little
early for that. She works. Give me a heart attack.
I didn't know what happened to Share. I thought for
sure you were gonna play Share.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Why did she die or something? Because Graham Green died.
You did a whole thing about the Indian music and
Kicking Bird and all, and you already did the Turkey Nation,
so I figured Share was okay. Never mind, you're you're
looking at me like I'm insane.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
Who's Graham Green? The hills he talking about? I don't
know either, what are you talking?
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Just five minutes ago you were talking about the actor.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
I thought his name was kicks kicking bird. Kicking bird, Yeah, yeah,
kicking bird.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
I want to talk to Kevin Custner to tunka tunka
look at.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
I hate to be the guy to bring this up,
but have you noticed he kind of looks Asian? You
shouldn't be bringing that up right now. I mean, he does,
you know he's that common with the you know then
whatever tribe he's from. The well, it's too late for
share now because the moment's gone.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
I wanted to get in here early enough to hear
stories about Burning Man. I'm curious as too. What is
there to do there besides walk around all day and
stare at each other like, oh, you're a freak.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
No, you're the freak for looking at us. It was
a fascinating week. And when I say, are there concerts?
Is it like Woodstock or something? What? What goes on?
Sort of? I went to Burning Man. It's true you did,
and I was far and away the most conservative person
there by a lot, the number two most.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
When Fox News did a whole story a Gutville, it's
been about fifteen minutes making fun of all the morons
at Burning Man, I thought, you know this doesn't sound
like Kenny's normal vacation. It was very, very very unusual.
Why did you get it in your head to go
in the first place? What did that little seed get planted?
Speaker 1 (13:21):
A friend of mine invited me, He said, you know,
you'd have fun. There's all it took. Just Hey, you
want to go to Burning Man. You didn't say, well,
I don't know. It's maybe not my place to be.
You've never gone somewhere, you never went before, so you
could check it out. Yeah, but not for a week.
I didn't go for a week. I went for three
days and that was enough. Okay. Yeah. Have you ever
(13:45):
been to a music festival? You probably have, right, well, yeah,
sure lately. A few things you see at a normal
festival that you do not see at Burning Man. Thing
Number one, commerce, there's nothing for sale there. They're not
selling things, they're not buying things. There's no merch stand.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
I told a friend that you were at bernie Man.
She told me that everybody there had to barter and
trade for something to earn their place, or to reason
to be there.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Was that happening. There's no bar even that isn't really
That's what I thought too. There's no bartering going on
Everything's Free.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
I was wondering, what did you take to barter with
if that was supposed to happen. I certainly hope it
wasn't just you.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
No, No, I brought something uh huh, right wing talking points,
you go. I went there to red pill people. This
maybe the last year of Burning Man then huh. I
was not loved, I'll put it that way. But I
had a good time. I mean, I still had fun. No,
everything's free. You walk around and there's there are no
acts booked. They don't book any acts. Billionaires who are
not involved in the organizing of the festival will hire DJs,
(14:53):
famous ones to come and perform there. And I don't
know what the point of that is, but I saw
a lot of it happening. Very bert stages a lot
of burning stuff. Well that makes effigy's that sort of thing.
It's a little paganistic. As a Christian, I was the
only person walking around with a cross around my neck,
and more than once someone walked up to me and
(15:14):
put their hand over it to cover it while they
spoke to me. Oh no, I know, And I remember thinking,
if the sign of a cross offends you, But you're
for equality. I have to ask, historically, where do you
think that idea came from? Good question, This whole idea
that we're all here, we're all equal, we should all
be nice to each other, which embodies the philosophy of
Burning Man started with Judeo Christian beliefs. They probably don't
(15:39):
want to hear that, No, they don't. In the same weekend,
burning Man experienced a birth and a murder. Still, I
got to think the most shocking thing to witness at
Burning Man was soap. I was in a what's there
any Yeah, I was in. I'm surprised you've you did
clean up.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
One of the things I was wondering is if you
would come back from Burning Man still looking like you
were there?
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Yeah, I know. I was in a camp with one friend.
It was a large camper, and still I think we
got on each other's nerves. An old friend of mine,
he's a doctor.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
That I grew, the one that suggested you go, yeah, okay,
well then there you go.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
I got. I rented a camper. I rented e bikes
with giant wheels so I could travel around what's called
the Plaia. And as you're riding around out there. You
see a lot of nudity, and to quote John Walton, yeah,
it's not the people you want to look at nation.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
It almost never is unless they don't know you're watching.
You know, it's dark outside and they left the lights on.
Kind of like the Ticketmaster business model. Is a healthy
combination of the rich and the ignorant. Out there at
Burning Man.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
A lot of wealthy people.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
We did get a top of emails about your wild vacation.
Jeff says, Kenny, are you the one responsible for destroying
the orgy tint?
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Okay? So the orgy tent is an interesting thing because
thanks to one of our radio listeners who I ran
into at the event, a really cool guy I named Derek,
I had Internet the whole time I was there. However,
most people don't. There's over one hundred thousand people there
and this event is located in the most desolate part
of the desert, two hours north of Reno. You know
(17:14):
what's weird.
Speaker 2 (17:14):
It sounds like punishment, especially for a younger generation. How
about you go somewhere so remote you don't have internet
for a whole week.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
That sounds cruel and inhumane these days. Yeah, but billyead
getting off the grid. Doesn't that sound good, dude? And
you know not, He's not the generation I'm talking about.
Not shockingly, the hippies and the ravers at burning Man
tend to agree with that notion. While I was there,
I had access to the Internet, so I was aware
of the fact that they said a rainstorm shut down
the orgy dome is what it was called, the orgy dome,
(17:46):
And on social media, that news story was everywhere. It's
widely discussed on Twitter x.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Between the orgy being destroyed and the sand storm, it's
pretty much all I saw because Fox News was covered
and making fun of you.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
Well, hang on a minute. At the event, nobody actually
knew what the orgy tent was. It wasn't discussed. No
one knew it was going on. It wasn't Maybe you
have to have.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
Gone a few years, you know, your first time, nobody
tells you about the orgy tent. Now you know, so
when you go back, you're going to go back next year,
you'll know all about the orgy tent.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
I don't think I'll be going back next year. But
it's interesting to be involved in something and then see
the news coverage of it and to be able to
actually see firsthand how different the two things are. Yeah,
the news coverage made it sound like the weather at
burning Man was just terrible and it ruined the whole party, Right,
But if you were actually at burning Man, the weather
wasn't really much of an issue at all. The problem.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
I'll tell you where the weather has been awful England.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
I don't know if you saw this.
Speaker 2 (18:46):
Before you went away for your your did you have
any visions or did a healer touch you or anything
really cool like that happen.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
I got touched one time by somebody at the TA
checkpoint in Sacramento. May consider themselves healers. Yeah. No, England.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
And I'm just reading this from the news story that
they printed out.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
I guess it's like two weeks ago.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
England is currently in a drought, the most severe climate
crisis that England has suffered since last year. When England
is experiencing horrible flooding. Right, they want to make this
a scary news story. The weather reporters always want you,
(19:34):
you know, on the edge of your seat. My god,
what's gonna happen next? Oh, it's a terrible drought. Last
year at this time it was a terrible flood So
this is what got my attention. The British government has
told its subjects, you know, the citizen UK, you know
the Muslims, yes, to delete old emails to save water.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
Okay, I'm gonna just tom.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
I I just open the floor for anybody to explain
to me how that helps.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
It has to do with cooling towers or something like that.
The you know that they are these giant database network,
says the Amazon computer, uh, storing all your emails in them,
or the Google database.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
Three hundred emails and I delete two hundred and fifty
emails out of my email account in my computer. The
cooling tower doesn't have to cool anymore. I got a
thing mind to stay cool.
Speaker 1 (20:30):
I gotta think of having unread emails in your Gmail account,
old emails that you've read and just didn't delete. If
that's what's preventing your island from capsizing, you're doing, You're
toast bird? Yeah, did you even really stand a chance? Right?
They show is going to.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
Be the greatest show.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
I've got a great two for Tuesday. It must be
two for Tuesday. Yeah, that two for Tooday special. Wolton M.
